Cyprien, 30, is a former second-round pick of the Jaguars back in 2013. He played out his four-year, $5,469,104 contract with the Jaguars before signing a four-year, $25 million contract with the Titans in 2016.
Cyprien had two years remaining on his deal when Tennessee released him last year with a failed physical designation. He later signed a one-year deal with the Eagles before being traded to the Falcons after a few games.
Unfortunately, Cyprien finished out his contract on the season-ending injured reserve last season. The 49ers signed him to a contract a few months ago and he’s been on and off of their roster.
In 2020, Cyprien has appeared in four games and recorded one tackle and a forced fumble.
